The Africa Cup of Nations 2019 is coming up fast on us, and the anticipation for the games is growing every day. In order to quell the anticipation a little bit and see what kind of games we are going to have to be expecting. Nigeria has thus announced some friendly games that will be played against the national teams of Senegal and Zimbabwe. The friendlies against the rival teams are going to be a great way to see what the world should be expecting from the cup this time around, and should be cause for excitement across all of the participating countries and for the supporters of each team. These games should provide the football betting tips that will be changing the decisions made by the fans and the supports in anticipation of the championship.
The friendlies
The Nigerian team has been the three-time champion of the Africa Cup of Nations, and it is on track to remain this way for another year in 2019. But no team is going to surrender as simply as that, so the rate of competition is high and the emotions are running wild. The exciting friendlies against Senegal and Zimbabwe, the two countries hoping to get a chance at victory for the first time this year, are going to showcase the improvement of the two teams and the potential of Nigeria this time around. While friendlies might not be the time to display the best of your ability, the teams are still going to be putting on a good show and displaying games played as well as they can. This is why the anticipation for the friendlies, the predictions of their outcomes and expectations for the coming African Cup of Nations.
Neither Senegal nor Zimbabwe has won a single time during the years of the competition’s history. Senegal joined relatively recently, so it is not that surprising, but this does not mean that the ambitions of the two nations are not running high and the expectations from their fans and supporters are not driving them on. This year in the African Cup of Nations looks to be one of the best to watch, as the games that will be taking place involved a lot of rivalries and a lot on the line.
2019 Cup of Nations
The championship is going to be held in Egypt this time around and will be starting in June. There are 24 teams participating, and all of them have a big stake in winning the games. Nigeria, the three-time champion, has a lot to prove this time around, especially since they did not qualify the last time the championship was held. The team has the drive and has been practicing non-stop since the last championship, so there is potential for victory, but it will only happen if the team rallies and is able to display a better game then they were able to do last time around.
Ivory Coast will be defending their title fiercely. Since their qualification, they have been doing their best to get ready for the cup and will be in great form by the beginning of the games. Nigeria might have a hard time playing against them, but they still have a chance to win. The friendlies will show how prepared Nigeria is, but making predictions is a little too early, even if it is an exciting thing to do.
